Am

The simplification probably won't work on a guitar, but maybe it will.
Anyway, here is the COMPLETE AND UNSIMPLIFIED VERSION OF THE SONG
TUNE YOUR GUITAR DOWN A SEMITONE (though I don't, and it sounds fine.)

Intro

Em7Em7Em7BEm7BEm7AEm7/AEm/GEm/D

Em7I know what you want
I wanna tEm7ake Byou to a midnight show tonight
If Em7you can keep a secret
I've got a Em7blanBket in the backseat on my mind,
And a Clittle place that Bmsits beneath the Em7sky.
She Cturned her face to Bmspeak,

But no one Dheard her cry.
-mute------- Em7 Em7/B
Drive faster, boy-----

Em7/AEm/GEm7/D

Drive faster, boy-----Yeah--

Em7I know there's a hope.
There's too many Em7peopBle trying to help me cope.
You've got a Em7real short skirt,
I wanna Em7lookB up, look up, look up, yeah, yeah.
Em7We were just in time,
Let me take a Em7littBle more off your mind.
There's Em7something in my head,
Somewhere in the back said:
Em7We wBere just a good thing, we were such a good thing.
CMake it go awBmay without a Em7word.
But Cpromise me you'll Bmstay,
and fix these Dthings I've hurt.
-mute strings----- Em7 Em7/B
Oh make it go away, oh----.
Drive faster,Em7 boyG--Em/G--, yeaEm7/Dh, oh no,

Solo

Em7Em7Em7BEm7BEm7AEm7/AEm/GEm/D

A Ccrashing tide can't Bmhide a guilty Em7girl.
With Cjealous hearts that Bmstart with gloss and Em7curls.
I Ctook my baby's Bmbreath, beneath the Amchandelier.
Of stars in Gatmosphere,
And watched her D/F♯disappear, Dinto the midnightEm7 showEm7----B

Oh Em7no, no, no, no, no, no,
Em7No, Bno, no, no, no.
If Em7/Ayou can keep a secret,
Well Em/Gbaby I can keep,Em7/D you can keep a seEm7cret. Em7BEm7/A
IfEm/G you can keep a secret, Em7/DI can keep a secEm7ret. Em7B
If Em7/Ayou can keep a secret,
Well Em/Gbaby I can keep, Em7/Dyou can keep a secEm7ret.
